Cause of Accelerating Universe

Introduction

Scientists are now saying that the universe is accelerating. That is, the universe is not just continuing to expand, but is actually accelerating in its expansion.

Is this True?

First, I am not sure this is true. I want to look at the data myself. I want to know exactly what it is these scientists saw or measured. Then I will interpret that for myself.

Very often, people are mistaken in what they observe. They can also attribute a cause to their observation which isn’t really true.

As a simple example, the Geiger Counter doesn’t really measure the amount of radioactive decay. What we get is a series of clicks, and these clicks are caused first by radioactive decay hitting the sensor, and then a cascading effect of subsequent electrons produced in the device. Thus, the Geiger Counter can give us an approximate idea of the radioactive decay, yet we can never correlate exact number of clicks to specific amounts of decay.

There are other examples as well. And many times highly respected scientists (including myself) will question the reports. What you are measuring may in fact be something else. Or the cause of your observation may be due to another factor.

Therefore, before I can actually agree that the stars of the universe are accelerating, I need to study the actual observations.

 

Another Problem with Accelerating Universe
I had another problem with the idea of the accelerating universe: how can stars be accelerating? After a burst of electromagnetic energy has been created, it travels at the same speed, virtually forever. Therefore it does not make sense to me that photons will increase their speed.

Actual Cause of the Accelerating Universe

However, today I have developed a theory on the Cause of the Accelerating Universe.

Suppose it is true that the stars, planets, photons, and various particles are indeed accelerating. This implies that there is an external force being applied. This the key concept.

I could never agree with the concept of stars and EM bursts accelerating on their own. This just can’t happen. Yet if we apply an external force on the stars and EM bursts, then we can indeed accelerate them.

Therefore, this implies that there is Strong Force at the center of the universe. This is something like a giant sun which continues to produce energy. This energy is then applied to all entities in the universe. In other words, this energy is in some form which can PUSH on the photons, stars, and other objects. This external pushing will in fact cause the photons, stars, and various objects to accelerate.

Thus, the main cause for an accelerating expanding universe must be a strong, continuous force of energy in the center of the universe. The entity, whatever it is, continues to produce very strong energy, in a form that can push all objects in the universe. This pushing causes the objects to accelerate.

Giant Pump, Giant Fan, Giant Geyser

The way I imagine this entity in the center of the universe is a giant pump, a giant fan, or a giant geyser.

Think of a pump. You squeeze it, and air is pushed along. Now imagine a giant pump, the size of a supernova…and imagine the amount of air this pump can push.

Of course we know that space contains very little air molecules, yet this giant pump is pushing something. It could be tiny particles, it could be quarks and protons, or it could be any number of things. Yet this pump is pushing something. And whatever is being pushed by the pump will eventually hit each star and each photon. This is the physical push which causes the star or photon to actually increase forward trajectory speed, aka acceleration.

The analogy of the giant fan is similar. You know that a fan will push air, and a higher powered fan will push air faster….thus the air is being “accelerated” to higher speeds. Again, the entity in the center of the universe could be like a giant fan, pushing some small particles in the universe at high speeds, which then push on the stars and photons, causing them to accelerate.

The geyser analogy also works. In the geysers on earth we have a process of heat and water underground, which ultimately causes the water to burst out. The explosive force can cause the water to be jettisoned hundreds of feet in the air.

Now suppose we have a similar entity in the center of the universe. Yet instead of water, our giant geyser jettisons some type of energy. Thus, every few minutes, this giant geyser burst forth a stream of energy – perhaps a stream several miles long.

This stream of energy may take several forms. This is yet to be discovered. One possible form is magnetic energy, or possibly electromagnetic energy. There may be other types of energy emitted as well.

Whatever form of energy this is, the energy will travel throughout space, and when it hits an object, the applied energy will cause the object to travel faster.

 

Summary
Thus, if the stars and EM bursts of the universe are not only expanding, but also in fact accelerating, then the primary cause must be due to an entity at the center of the universe. This entity will continuously produce energy, or it will continue to apply a force to tiny particles. Whatever the form, the energy or particles will be sent accelerating through space, and when hits another object, will cause that object to accelerate.

This is the likely cause of an accelerating universe.
